As I am attending the ACR gig Saturday any bets on any of NO or associated being there?
Please consider this was the group (albeit Ian's words) that called them "fucking shit"!

"1, 2, 3, 4, duh, duh"
Name that tune?
Slippy, could you post a set list for the ACR gig? It would be interesting to know if its different from what they've been playing over the last 18 months or so given the special occasion.
Would've gone me sen but I'm up in Glasgee for the weekend.

Do the Du
Maybe I will remember the setlist depends on how 'with it' I am :p
Glasgow is no excuse for missing an ACR gig!

It's gotta be the same set, wouldn't you think? Berluddy good set though.
Shame we've got Oldham at home, instead of away.

Which set you on about?
They've done roughly the same set since their 'comeback' this time 2 years ago. About half a dozen gigs (London, Mancland, Blackburn) with a couple of cancellations (London, Hull).
Last time out was Fabric last October/November but they were only given an hour there so it was a truncated version of the set they'd been doing all along.
... and just to make me more excited my copies of the 'To Each ...' CD and Vinyl re-releases have turned up today! 
BTW the 'bonus' 12" of Abracadubra/Sommadub actually has labels like the original Sir Horatio 12" with them being called Sir Horatio - good on ya Soul Jazz Records!
Try and nab a setlist if you can Slippy, then scan it and stick it up here!
Dead easy at an ACR gig - you'll probably be the only one clambering around looking for it.
Don't nick Denise Johnson's tambourine though. 
Can't believe a NOOL'er attempted that. And, nope, it wasnae me!

I don't think I will nick her percussion - no 
I will endeavour to get that setlist though!

Denise Johnson's with ACR now? I wondered where she'd gone!
So who is going then? I'm gonna jet down. i get back from uni at about 6 ish, so can make it.
Do they still play flight? I only have the early collection that was released a couple of years back.
Well I would jet down. But i cant seem to book tickets!
Apparently there is a problem with my switch card, and i cant get through on the phones. Disgraceful

They were doing Flight at all their initial gigs - we talked about 'em HERE. I had scanned the setlist in as you can see (er, or rather can't see) but I no longer use that domain so it's not available anymore.
However, their most recent gig is talked about HERE where Flight didn't appear, but then it was a cut-down set from the norm anyways.

Problem with your Switch card
I have heard some excuses!
:DOriginally posted by Slippy Al. I think you lie about that tambourine! Is it on your mantelpiece there?
Not on mine, no. But I might have information as to whose mantelpiece it does adorn!

Was Denise not impressed by this nabbing?
Want to get hold of those bongos on the Tribeca video?

Finally got it sorted and have my ticket waiting for me.
Bloody way ahead, i have booked ticket after ticket for band after band over the last few years, and yet i still cant use my switch card over t'internet. No problem over the phone. Its all a conspiracy
So who is playing with ACR these days then?

Same line-up these last 15'ish years.
Kerr, Moscrop, Quigley, Johnson & Johnson.
And some anonymous bloke on keyboards.

Nostalgia time - look at the back of the All Night Party 7"
Jeremy Kerr (Jeremy )
Martin Moscrop
Simon Topping (whatever happened to...)
Peter Terrell
I feel better now (carefully putting rare record away :p )
Not sure what happened to Simon Topping (didn't realise he was also in T-Coy with Mike Pickering...?)
But I do know (although this is a very obscure fact!) that Andrew Connell (occasional ACR keyboardist) played on the "Jane And Barton" album on Cherry Red (of "It's A Fine Day" fame)! :)
Oh, and of course, Donald Johnson used to drum with Electronic.
l8rs,
Nick ;)

it doesn't matter what ian thought of them. what DOES matter is that you and others like them.
Terrell and Connell went on to form Swing Out Sister did'nt they? Shame that such pioneers should now find themselves on a list of wanted for musical crimes against humanity...

I knew Connell was in Swing Out Sister, didn't know Terrell was. Who cares - Corinne Drewery was the only thing looking at there! Phwoar! Actually, aren't they still going? I'm sure I read a couple of years back that they're 'big in Japan' and are constantly gigging over there.
I think there's a thread somewhere here about Topping. Marty Gray knew what happened to him. He moved to Noo Yoik to study percussion, then played in a couple of other bands back here, and now advertises himself as a piano tuner. Or something.
Check the FAQ for the scoop on their Japanese popularity!
Seems it's just Drewery and Connell now. There were three of 'em in the 80's, sure it was Terrell but could be wrong.
